Been down in the storm so long
Adrift and all alone
And nobody
Nobody knows the tears I've cried
Just a poor child left on my own
Without a place to call home
And nobody
Nobody knows the tears I've cried
Never felt like I belonged
Any place I laid my head
Never felt like I fit in
Well, no child should feel so alone
So held my head up and sang my song
Finding strength in a world so cold
And nobody
Nobody knows the tears I've cried
No time for suffering
I knew I had to be strong, yes I did
So used to fightin' ya'll
How can people treat each other so wrong?
They say time heals all the pain
This I tell myself again and again
And nobody
Nobody knows the tears I've cried
